I see in pcomplete-completions-at-point that typing "M-! cd d:\gnu TAB"
causes pcomplete-stub on entry to pcomplete-completions-at-point to get
the value "d:gnu", whereas if I type "M-! cd d:/gnu TAB", the value of
pcomplete-stub is "d:/gnu".
Sounds like whoever computes pcomplete-stub is the culprit: they treat
the backslash as an escape character (or so it seems).

This works better, it produces "cd d:\gnu/ ", which is ugly, but
correct.
